Thanks to Block Scientific, I was able to procure the re-certified Bayer DCA 2000+ without hassles and get the lab back in operation. The
device works perfectly and I look forward to doing more business with Block Scientific.

Abbott Cell Dyn 3500

Abbott Cell Dyn 3500 is an automated hematology analyzer manufactured by Abbott Diagnostics. It is a compact, user-friendly system distributed by Block Scientific - a global company distributing the finest quality reconditioned and refurbished clinical and laboratory equipment. Evaluation of this instrument was performed in accordance with the International Committee for Standardization in Hematology (ICSH) standards.

Cell Dyn 3500, a multi parameter from Abbott Diagnostics, is a multi-tasking system capable of producing 22 hematological parameters that include the basis for a five-part WBC differential. Multi-Angle Polarized Scatter Separation (M.A.P.S.S.) makes available primary white blood cell count, reticulocyte analysis and all differential information. The instrument features an automatic start-up cycle that enhances the flow system and ensures the background counts. It performs a shut-down cycle, and can place itself in a standby mode.

The analyzer provides both closed and open sampling options on two different instrument versions. It incorporates optical scatter and impedance to increase the accuracy of particle counting. Its 540 MB hard drive provides on-board storage for 10,000 patient reports. A patient report can be customized with patient identification and color histograms.
